    When you play a track and finish it you are prompted to rate it, however if you choose to replay it by pressing the back button you are not promted to rate when you complete it again, this is probably the reason why the Downloads are always so much higher than the actual ratings. People just forget and move onto the next track without rating.

    If your going for a second run on a track you must like it and would give it a high rating. I think this system is costing some quality tracks the 5-star rating they deserve.

    Maybe this issue could be fixed in a future update?
    This crops up in parties all the time. Everyone agrees that the only tracks you might forget to rate are ones you like, due to the process you described. Seems unfortunate.

    What happens to me was that I play some nice track and finish it normally, then right after finishing it asks something like "Press A to continue" or retry. And when I press retry and play the track again to get a good run, but fail it and give up and press quit, after that I'm not able to rate track even if I want to. Some tracks I've played have lost many good rating because of that.

    I haven't encountered this problem, clearly quality 5-star tracks are getting buried in track limbo because of this.

    People have joked about setting up a "guide to rating tracks" maybe it's not such a bad idea.

    That happened to me, too. The way I see it you really have leave the track after passing it (not neccessarily the first time but just dont quit during a run) to be able to rate it. If it´s a good track I gladly play it again to give it the rating it deserves but if it´s really bad and that happens I usually just get angry at myself and dont bother to play it again.

    Stash House by Ikes78 (pure trials).

    WIPEOUT Decimation (skill games/Pure fun).

    Micro Sandbox by RAC Finest (wherever you choose, top supercross track).

    Stone cold by SmEgHeAd89 (pure or fun).

    I think anyone could play any of these that they like the look of and be very happy that they did. That to me sums up what RL picks should be about, going to the feed, choosing a track you think you will like, playing it and liking it. All 4 of these tracks are different styles and all 4 work very well imo.
